Not All Darkness
""THERE’S no darkness, but only men against us." This victory of courage over despair, of purpose over paralysing doubt, of faith in man over contempt for man, briefly but beautifully dramatised in this book, seems to me to shine on the darkest problems of this time, political and moral. it shines back into shameful recerit chapters of history and it shines forward, to show us something of what has to be beaten and achieved in this "new order" that is so far a phrase but is going to be a challenge. It will be met only if Felipe ... the common man... everywhere can say, "It is NOT all darkness ‘ There’s no darkness, only men against us."(From a review of Ralph Bates’s novel, "The Fields of Paradise," by J. H. E. Schroder, at 3YA, September 16.)
